THESE SHINING LIVES

By Melanie Marnich

Performance Dates: October 10-13, 2019

Director: Lauren Schaffter

Assistant Director: Christina Chandler

Student Director: Libby Miller

THESE SHINING LIVES chronicles the strength and determination of women considered expendable in their day, exploring their true story and its continued resonance. Catherine and her friends are dying, it's true; but theirs is a story of survival in its most transcendent sense, as they refuse to allow the company that stole their health to kill their spirits--or endanger the lives of those who come after them.
